Bovard then lists some of the programs which AmeriCorps pays its “volunteers” to deliver, with these two especially remarkable:

    * Paying children to surrender their toy guns
    * Convincing middle-class families to accept federally-subsidized insurance for their kids

Well, luckily my bros don't get toy guns.  Once you turn 7 you start shooting real ones.  GameDev_Bryan-1, Hippies-0

And before the real ones, we don't play toy guns, or cops in robbers, we just fist fight.

I remember the NYC libertarian party organizing a "Guns forTots" toy gun drive for poor kids after one of these. I about hurt myself laughing.
